First, always call the police and have an accident report filled out. Get a copy of this report for your records and make copies for your insurance company.

You have two years to file a claim from the date of your accident under Florida PIP statutes. If it has been a year or longer since the accident and you are now experiencing pain and discomfort, or have been since the accident and have been waiting for the pain to go away, you have the right to seek treatment and have your PIP benefits pay for your treatment. Under the new Florida PIP law, youMUSTsee a Doctor within 14 days.

Minimum coverage under Florida PIP law is $10,000.00. Every auto insurance policy must carry this minimum amount of coverage. At Cooper Chiropractic we accept all auto insurance coverages.

Under PIP law you have the right to choose your doctor or go anywhere you wish to be treated. Neither the insurance company or anybody else can tell you that you have to go any where in particular.

At Cooper Chiropractic we have an open door policy, you can come in at your convenience and we will take care of you.

Cooper Chiropractic does not charge your attorney for copies of records, exam reports, test results, or any other necessary paperwork your attorney needs to pursue a case on your behalf. This can save you, the patient, hundreds to thousands of dollars at the time of settlement because these costs are passed on to you and taken out of your settlement. Dr. Cooper does not charge for his testimony either in deposition or trial.
